In the past, they’ve done some amazing shows, but this is more sophisticated and artistic.” Braun found inspiration in the world of art. The video cubes that are such a striking feature of the design, he says, “came out of an industrial architectural sculpture in an Amsterdam building. I was fascinated by the way it jux - taposed light and shape in lines and cubes and boxes. I thought, I could do that with those little light panels, but then we wouldn’t get any light on the stage.” Then another art project, this on in New York City, came into the design - er’s view. “It had cubes, in a ceiling, that were color- changing. It was everything I wanted to do, except the cubes didn’t move. I started playing with sizes, weights, what we would do with them, and how we would get illu - mination on the band.” An arrangement of moving video cubes wasn’t the only concept in play, Braun says: “A Metallica show is really n n a half-band, half-audience and to me—and I think to the m r a L band—we’re striving for a creative situation where the h p l a energy of the band comes into the audience where it gets R : s o amplified and goes back to the band.

The concerts were historic on multiple levels, serving as the grand opening of San Francisco’s Chase Center, reuniting the band and Symphony for the first time since the 1999 performances captured on the Grammy-winning S&M album, and featuring the first-ever symphonic renditions of songs written and released since those original S&M shows. “S&M2 offers an inspired and eye-opening view into not just the shared heritage of classical music and heavy metal, but into the spirit of innovation and to endless vistas awaiting exploration.” - Louder “And it’s also of little surprise, especially for anyone who attended those increasingly legendary shows at Chase last year, that this new album is another major winner. What a great memento of such a monumental night in Bay Area live music history.” - The Mercury News “This collaboration between Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony brings to life the fusion of heavy metal and classical music. As it was in 1999, S&M2 is a grand celebration of the energy and magic that these forms of music convey.” – Metal Wani S&M2 is a landmark release in the Metallica catalogue, both sonically and visually.
